Unleash your authentic voice and become the singer of your dreams
Vocal mentorship that helps you sing with clarity, fortifies your confidence, and prepares you for your greatest performance yet.
Whether it’s been days, months, or years since you last performed…
Your soul longs for vocal expression.
Your inner voice
Your inner voice
But something is holding you back. Maybe there are gaps in your knowledge or emotional blocks you can’t figure out. Maybe the last time you sang, your throat tightened, your body clenched up and the vision you had for your performance vanished in front of the crowd.
…and yet, despite it all, your inner voice is still willing you to explore your sense of personal artistry through vocal music.
Take a deep breath in and relax. It can be different this time around.
Most vocal programs and voice coaches focus on technique only — with little insight into the performing world.
Tell me if you’ve ever:
Tried reworking your sound and style but never found a voice that resonates with your soul.
Felt physically or emotionally uncomfortable while singing and performing.
Felt disconnected from the songs you were told to sing.
Found yourself “pushing through” without a sounding board to guide you.
Attempted to fill the gaps with a mixed tape of YouTube warmup tutorials.
Developed a mistrust of vocal coaches and mentors who never quite got your style or believed you had something to offer.
Understood the technique but struggled to navigate the industry or create your own performance opportunities.

What if you could go from uncertain and insecure to radiant, confident, and commanding on stage?
FAST FORWARD
Imagine having a repertoire of songs that fill you with joy to sing.
Knowing how to sing with vibrant spirit and individuality.
Knowing how to put together a band and communicate with other musicians.
Having the confidence to direct other musicians or tell a recording engineer exactly what you do and don’t like.
Understanding insider language and how to navigate the Wild West of the music industry.
Never relying on auditions to get a chance to perform again!
Feeling like an accomplished, unstoppable performer.

How You’ll Channel Your Muse
We’ll work together to customize your journey, but here’s the blueprint you’ll start with.
MONTH 1
Reset
We’ll start with a personalized strategy session to create your plan and set goals for the next six months. Together, we’ll reflect on where you are today and diagnose the blocks and disconnects in your voice. We’ll establish a baseline and your metrics for success. Most importantly, you’ll learn to tune into your capacity and listen to what your body is telling you.
+ Two private 60-minute coaching sessions
+ Access to Members-Only Live Classes
MONTH 2
Inhale
Absorb new techniques and fresh perspectives you've been longing for. You’ll also develop a simple breathwork practice to help you discover your baseline and regulate your nervous system. The goal is to feel safe in your body so you can access more freedom and vulnerability that can increase your range and help you sing longer phrases with ease.
+ Two private 60-minute coaching sessions
+ Access to Members-Only Live Classes
MONTH 3
Release
Release vocal tightness and free your voice with targeted techniques for your mind, body, and soul. You’ll address more than technique by learning to embrace imperfection and take risks that pay off. You’ll also learn to use movement to release tension and create space for new possibilities.
+ Two private 60-minute coaching sessions
+ Access to Members-Only Live Classes
MONTH 4
Dream
Find your unique voice and free yourself from comparisonitis with a holistic approach to invoking your inner muse. You’ll honor where you are today and visualize your future self through meditation and journal prompts.
+ Two private 60-minute coaching sessions
+ Access to Members-Only Live Classes
MONTH 5
Devote
Develop a sacred practice routine inspired by the goals you’ve set, that you’ll actually look forward to. Avoid a skills plateau by creating actionable habits and customized warm-ups that build your technique and boost your confidence.
+ Two private 60-minute coaching sessions
+ Access to Members-Only Live Classes

“Before working with Kimberly I was struggling with organization as an artist. I didn't have a clear vision of my dreams and what I wanted. I also had a small repertoire of jazz before working with her. After working with Kimberly I have more confidence in myself as a person and a performer. She knows how to find people's individual strengths and sparkles, bring them out and make them feel so good about themselves. She encourages individuality. Having a mentor like this has helped me enormously.”

“Kimberly has such a way of talking through singing placement and sensations, and she makes tone and notes feel accessible. Kimberly also helped my imposter syndrome disappear as she is the perfect mix of oracle, cheerleader, friend, and fairy godmother that I have ever experienced in a teacher of the arts.”
Hello beautiful soul,
I’m Kimberly Hawkey, Fairy Godmother to those who long to express beauty, self-worth, and joy through your voice.
The truth is, I didn’t always accept or nurture my voice…
After several difficult years of minimizing, resisting, and sabotaging my gifts, I had to learn to work from the ground up to restore my confidence and understand the value of vocal expression. As an active performer, I built my career by making a lot of mistakes onstage and behind the scenes. I eventually found my way, retrieved my artistic soul through the power of singing, and am devoted to helping others do the same.
Over the last 16 years, I’ve taught thousands of students who have gone on to have careers in the arts, write musicals, perform onstage, self-produce and release records, build audiences around their music, and cultivate more joy in their creative lives.
My promise to you as your mentor is to champion your vision, not dictate it.
